Hi
I'm 35+5 and at my midwife appointment on Friday baby is thought to be breech. Midwife couldn't tell what was where, I suspect it is lying transverse - everything seems to add up to this. She is going to come and have another feel on Tuesday when I'll be 36 weeks with a view to organising a scan.
Baby is also large for dates so am having another glucose test next week. I've already had one as my first baby was over 10lb (40+3). It came back clear, I'm pretty sure genetics mean I'll have tall kids!
I also have SPD which has got quite bad now. So there's all the background!!!
I plan on declining ECV due to the factors above, success rate is only 45% at my hospital anyway. What I'd like to know is when would a c section likely be scheduled for? I know electives are usually 39 weeks but with transverse is it likely they'd do it sooner?
Any experiences with transverse babies I'd love to hear about. Thanks
